I go with Magadan, who was never a 10 to me.

Magadan never quite was allowed to fit in, and when he forced them to reconsider him, was never really trusted. He's a 29.

Wayne Garrett should have been a 29.

Yeah. A prototypical one at that.

Oddly, Trax no better than tied for third on flash thought:

1) Viola
2) Yoshii
3) Trachsel & Singleton
5) Chris Aguila

No love for Mickey Lolich?

I went to MBTN and checked the all-time list. Traschel jumps out at me.

Yeah, flash thought is the test, though.

I don't even remember Trachsel as a 29! (I'm much less likely to notice or remember uniform numbers than I used to be.)

The only name that I associated with 29 was Magadan.

Traschel 4
Viola 2
Magadan 2
Lolich 1

Viola's my 29 too, but that might be because of that Mets Classic the other day.
